came home to let my puppies out into the backyard ,opened sliding glass doors to find a hawk on top of my best chicken. My little Polish girl "Tiny Turner".
It must have just happened moments ago because i spooked it away and she has only a talon puncture a half inch below her right eye. She's up and walking but discombobulated. Cleaned the wound and waiting for her to drink. Hope she makes it thru the night. She isn't usually allowed out with the other birds since she cant see well with the mop top.Lucky for federal protection,because that hawk flew 60 yards away into a tree and watched me waiting for me to walk away from Tiny turner. I'd have greased her otherwise.,,,,that is otherwise,,I'm not saying I'm going to so no need for preaching on posting about killing hawks.
Just a bad day.
